Coos County developed this multi-jurisdictional Natural Hazard
Mitigation Plan in an effort to reduce future loss of life and damage to
property resulting from natural hazards. This plan was developed with
and for the following jurisdictions: Coos County and the cities of Bandon,
Coos Bay, Coquille, Lakeside, Myrtle Point, North Bend, and Powers.
These are the same jurisdictions that were represented in the 2005 Coos
County Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan. It is impossible to predict
exactly when natural hazards will occur, or the extent to which they will
affect the community. However, with careful planning and collaboration
among public agencies, private sector organizations, and citizens within
the community, it is possible to minimize the losses that can result from
natural hazards.
Natural hazard mitigation is defined as a method of permanently reducing
or alleviating the losses of life, property, and injuries resulting from natural
hazards through long and short-term strategies. Example strategies
include policy changes, such as updated ordinances, projects, such as
seismic retrofits to critical facilities; and education and outreach to targeted
audiences, such as Spanish speaking residents or the elderly. Natural
hazard mitigation is the responsibility of individuals, private businesses
and industries, state and local governments, and the federal government.
This Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan was developed through a regional
partnership funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Pre-Disaster Mitigation Competitive Grant Program. The Oregon Coast Region
grant was awarded to update the natural hazard mitigation plans for the
region. This regional effort used a plan update process, plan templates and
plan development support provided by the Oregon Partnership for
Disaster Resilience at the University of Oregon.

Eugene and Springfield jointly developed this Natural Hazards Mitigation
Plan in an effort to reduce future loss of life and property resulting from
natural disasters. It is impossible to predict exactly when these disasters
will occur, or the extent to which they will affect these cities. However,
with careful planning and collaboration among public agencies, private
sector organizations, and citizens within the community, it is possible to
minimize the losses that can result from natural disasters.
This Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan was developed through a regional
partnership funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Pre-
Disaster Mitigation Competitive Grant Program. The grant was awarded
to support the update of natural hazard mitigation plans for the Eugene
and Springfield. The planning process utilized a four-phased planning
process, plan templates and plan development support provided by the
Partnership for Disaster Resilience at the University of Oregon.
